Cheap Skincare: Alessandra Steinherr x Primark
I had never been inside a Primark store until this autumn, when Alessandra Steinherr launched her skincare line for the brand. For those of you that don’t spend silly amounts of time on Instagram checking people’s skincare routines: she is a former Glamour m..
Autumn Edit: Makeup
Makeup is one category where I buy less stuff than I used to (although I might end up paying more…). That said, I did buy quite a few things for this autumn, as I usually find autumn more inspiring in makeup terms than other times of the year. It is foundati..
Drunk Elephant Brand Overview Part 1
If you follow skincare news as obsessively as I do, you already know that Drunk Elephant is launching at Cult Beauty and Space NK on 3 October. From then on, this amusingly named skincare line will be easily accessible for people in Europe (and beyond, but i..
Warm Weather Skincare Routine
As the heatwave continues (it’s going to be 37 degrees in Brussels today), I have been contemplating my skincare routine. I fully understand when people do not want to put anything on their skin in this heat and if you can get away with cleansing, a hydratin..
Jordan Samuel Skincare

My skincare obsession has been less in evidence recently, because I haven’t been buying as much as usual. In fact, since my Glossier haul, I’ve only bought a couple of bits and pieces and have been using up my (still too big) existing stash. There are, howev..
Cheap Face: Skincare
If there is one good thing about my love for fancy skincare, it’s that when I come across something cheap that I like, you can be relatively certain it’s decent quality. Of course, it may still not be right for you, because your skin is different, but it’s u..
Cheap Face: The Makeup Edition
I know I’m not great at „beauty on the budget“ advice, as I usually use pretty pricey products myself and I’m not a professional blogger who tries and assesses everything on the market. This does not mean that I think expensive stuff is always better: there ..
A Day in London
It’s such a cliche, but I really do like London. I like that it’s big, diverse and free and then there’s of course the conditioning by books, movies and music that makes it feel familiar and full of meaning. It’s also a relief that I can – literally – unders..
